Sundance 26: Choctow County War

About this ebook
Sundance was on his way to pay respects to an old friend when he spotted a boy running across the prairie. He had escaped from kidnappers and Sundance helped the lad return home. But what the boy called home didn’t sit too well with Sundance. The boy’s father was Owen Mahaffey, a tyrannical oil baron who controlled the city of Tamarack, a town where greed ran rampant and violence struck like wildfire. When the halfbreed got wind of what was going on there, nothing could stop the rage seething within him.
Peter McCurtin
Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties. Records also confirm that, in 1958, McCurtin co-edited the short-lived (one issue) New York Review with William Atkins. By the early 1960s, he was co-owner of a bookstore in Ogunquit, Maine, and often spent his summers there.McCurtin's first book, Mafioso (1970) was nominated for the prestigious Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award, and filmed in 1973 as The Boss, with Henry Silva. More books in the same vein quickly followed, including Cosa Nostra (1971), Omerta (1972), The Syndicate (1972) and Escape From Devil's Island (1972). 1970 also saw the publication of his first "Carmody" western, Hangtown.Peter McCurtin died in New York on 27 January 1997. His westerns in particular are distinguished by unusual plots with neatly resolved conclusions, well-drawn secondary characters, regular bursts of action and tight, smooth writing. If you haven't already checked him out, you have quite a treat in store.McCurtin also wrote under the name of Jack Slade and Gene Curry.
